Successful Ways to Ease Pain
Learning to relieve pain must be the most ~，~ratifying health lesson
of them all.
Some people worry about their cholesterol count or their weight.
But what do these mere numbers mean compared to the electric sizzle of
sciatica or the brain-mashing hammer of migraine?
It s no good to be told that pain won t kill you when you already feel
you re in hell. Something has got to be done， and that s what this hook
is all about.
Luckily， there s been a lot of good research into pain control in
recent years， so there are lots of valuable lessons to be learned. Clinics
devoted to pain relief have been opened by major health organizations，
and we have talked with experts at many of them in preparing this
volume of The prevention Total Health System~ Their advice is
practical， not just theoretical， and based on actual treatments of many
patients. This is the kind of information we most like to present--the
kind that can make a big difference in how you feel.
What s perhaps most surprising about the new approach to pain
relief is that drugs play only a minor role. Too many drugs， doctors have
learned， are addictive. And often their effect seems to diminish rapidly
with continued use. That s a dangerous combination， leading to abuse，
dependency and a host of side effects.
The new emphasis is on natural healing--what you can do for
yourself， through lifestyle changes， attitude， psychological techniques，
exercise， physical therapy， even nutrition.
They l~ all here， and any one of them may be the right technique，
the successful technique， for you. And you needn t be living in agony to
benefit. Do you have chronic， low-grade back pain? Tennis elbow ?
Muscle pain? Knee pain? Cramps? Occasional tension headaches? At
one time or another， I ve had all of them! So working on Pain Free has
been a most valuable experience for me. I think reading it will benefit
you， too.
